Dear Sir : A great many people

t to show what ~Devoe lead-and

o paint it, and then not paint it
gain for ten years-unless it

We'd like such a sample as that
n every town in the country
vith a notice aboat it in the local
aper : ' Mr. Caldwell's house was
ainted ten y ears ago with Devoe
ead-and-zine, and has never been
epainted. The color is not so
right as it was ; but the paint is
,s perfect a coat as ever, to keep
,ut water."
A good lead-and-oil job is ex
>ectedl to last three years; it is
,good onei that lasts three years;

Sudden Death at Woodward.
Never have the people of Wood
ward received a greater shock i
than they did about 4 o'clock r
a. M. on Wednesday last, by the y
announcement that Mrs. T. W.
Brice, Sr., one of the most esti- s
mable ladies of the commuity, f
had suddenly died at her resi- v
dence. t
The circumstances of her death '
as we have learned them, are
as follows: She was aroused t
about 3 o'clock to go to one of
the members of the family, who
was ill, and when in the act of
dressing, passed away. Medical
aid was quickly summoned, but
too late. Her spirit had flown to
the God who gave it. She was
beyond all earthly help. Thus 1
has fallen one of the most de
voted wives, the kindest of moth
ers. the purest of Christians, and
most exemplary women of this
community; and most sincerely
do the sympathies of all go out
to the husband and children in
their sudden and irreparable be
reavement.
All the children were present
at the funeral, which took place
at Concord church, besides a
large concourse of friends.
The floral tokens were many
and beautiful, the grave was one
mass of blooms. May grace from
on high be given to the sorely
stricken family to sustain them
in their sad affliction.

They All Drank.
A number of years ago a certain
rm of four men in Boston were
ated "Al." Theyl were rich,
wusperous, young and prompt.
One of them bad curiosity to
ee how they were rated, and
ound these facts in Dun's and
Tas satisfied; but at the end I
hese words were added:
But they all drank."
He thought it a good joke at the
ime; but a few years later, two
>f them were dead, another was
drunkard and the fourth was
>oor and living partly on charity.
The one little note at the end
)f their rating was the most im
)ortant and significant of all the
